What I'm wondering is:
Do employers take online degrees seriously or are the seen as "less than" other degrees?
FWIW the only schools I'm looking into are ACTUAL accredited nonprofit 4 year universities in my state.

I work in a very technical field (tax and tax law) and I noticed that some masters degreed employees were very weak in research and writing (which are heavily emphasized in traditional programs.) These employees had online masters. Now I ask specific questions in interviewing and have not hired any more online grads.
